On Friday January 3rd at approximately 807PM, Hughesville Volunteers were alerted to the 23000 Block of Aquasco Road in PG County for the Motor Vehicle Collision. Chief 2B, Squad 2, and Paramedic Ambulance 28 responded. While responding the assignment was upgraded to subjects trapped. Units arrived on scene to find a two-vehicle collision with two subjects trapped, one in each vehicle. Squad 2 quickly stabilized both vehicles and began extrication. Based on the injuries one of the drivers received, a helicopter was requested. Hughesville Engine 22 was alerted to handle the landing zone.

Squad 2’s crew was able to extricate both subjects in approximately 15 minutes and turn the patients over to awaiting EMS units.
